You're right. I guess it's just that as a foreigner I don't understand the context when I see those kinds of streams... I expect to see starcraft games when i click on their stream link. Instead i see chicks, food, and drinks. I'm like, "where's the SC bro"

They dont advertise the game. They advertise themself. People arent there for Starcraft, they are there for the character. Even flash doesnt get numbers like that. And you might think that it cant get any bigger than Flash

Indeed the primary source of entertainment is the streamer. The game itself is secondary.

Streamers like Sea and TerrOr see themselves as entertainers rather than StarCraft players.
